The next generation

Id like to firstly say no, i am not that old but time is also so long yet so short. Although i have had my years. I’ve lived in my neighborhood my whole life. Almost everyone is my neighborhood babysat me or i just popped up in their house. We have a common area in my neighborhood and my parents would always let me play there and when they wanted be back inside my mom would do this crazy loud whistle that everyone in the neighborhood knew of. Once i got to the age of 10 id run around to everyone’s house and say hello and play. I didn’t tell my mother so everyone knew if i ended up at their house to call Barbara to let her know. I had my generation of friends and people my age and my brother had his and so did my sister. It was crazy to me how people started to move away or split apart. Our neighborhood was very tight and when time came for the ‘Next generation’ to take over i was confused and quiet honestly sad. Now i see the little kids playing in the common area i once played in and every once in awhile i hear parents calling in their kid. I love my neighborhood and its growth.

Soccer

I have talked about sports before on my blog. I have yet to talk about them specifically, and since it is time for spring sports ill talk about soccer!

Soccer has been apart of my life since i was walking. My sister was around the age of 12 so she would try and play soccer with me. I loved it, although when i was five i was using my hands and goofing around i eventually around the age of 9-10 started to get more into soccer. My dad loved watching me and my sister play soccer. I know i wasn’t very good but kicking the ball and running around was enough for me to enjoy it and play on a team. I played for a while in all year around and then would take a break. I have played every position. Defense to striker to midfield. I enjoyed them all very much but i suck with center mid. This year with a new turf field is going to be really fun. I’m looking forward to learning and playing more soccer. I also have the opportunity to make new friends which is always the best part of joining a team.
